"This is good." Nickolai praised the food as he took seconds making Alexis and Isabelle smile at the chef. They had done a great job.
"Indeed."
"It is."
Silvano and Gabriele praised as well. Julia looked torn because the food was good and she couldn't say that it was not. That would mean that her husband was wrong and of course, with her thinking that was termed as disrespect.
"It does taste nice. You must have put some efforts into this." Julia smiled.
'Some?'
Alexis felt frustrated with the woman. She had become so bitter that she could not even praise without saying something negative or without a taunt. Here she was, trying to work out this woman, giving her some empathy or ..pity even though she was not worth it. Not worth any of it.
"Grandma," Alexis called for her attention. "I think I have the answer to your questions from last night then."
